Feel free to use our Christmas Greetings usecase for your own customers. You can do so, by adding a link in your newsletter. Before you send it out, you just have to add the name of your customers inside the link. Here’s how that works. Our Christmas Greetings Avatar is designed to spread love and joy. Therefore, we made it as simple as possible to adapt it. The link to the personalized greetings, looks like this: https://go.plural.io/s/9413dd1a05?senderName=Michael&recipientName=Raija You can specify the name of the sender (here: Michael) and the name of the person receiving the greetings (here: Raija) by changing the corresponding parts of the link. So what that means is, if your name is “Mickey” and you want to greet “Daisy” your link would need to look like this: https://go.plural.io/s/9413dd1a05?senderName=Mickey&recipientName=Daisy The goal is to send a newsletter where every contact receives a personalized link. The avatar can then read the first name from the link. Use this flow:
  • Create an email in your newsletter tool.
  • Decide which variable you need in the avatar flow. For Christmas greetings, this is the recipient’s first name.
  • Find the merge tag your newsletter tool uses for first names.
  • Add the avatar link to the newsletter, for example through a button.
  • Replace recipientName=Raija with your newsletter tool’s merge tag.
Example: recipientName={{first_name}}
  • Change the sender’s name the same way as you changed the recipient’s name. So modify the “&senderName=Michael” part of the URL. Note: if you want to write something like “the Humanizing Team”, replace the blank spaces with %20 (here: the%20Humanizing%20Team).
  • That’s it. You should be good to go. But try to send a test newsletter first to make sure that your email tool adapts the link in the right way.
The avatar replaces #ATTRI/senderName with the sender name from the link and speaks it exactly as you pass it. Image So it makes more sense to write “the Humanizing Team” instead of “Humanizing Team”.
